Poetry. Michael's poetic account of his journey through the effects of drug use and mental illness moves through stages of psychosis, wellness, care in the community and catharsis. There is a probing of the dark places with humour, grace and wisdom whilst reaching for the light. Poetically free and fearless, it follows its own inner rhythms—shaping text and space, to produce something quite remarkable. Humbling, compassionate, bold, this account reveals what it is to find a true moral compass through the darkest of times.
